Uncontrollable Flames Chapter 14
Malia “Hey Pearson, Dawson nice save out there” Hendricks announced as June and I stepped out of the rig. We had just responded to a call where a wife had beat the shit out of and stabbed her husband 3 times after she had found out that her no-good of a husband had not only allowed his friend to rape their 14-year-old daughter but he also participated and got her pregnant. Once I heard that I wanted to participate in that ass-whooping that the mom had done way before we even got there but I had to remain professional. I kept the mom away and did my best to talk her into putting the knife down and not killing him so that June could start examining his wounds and prevent him from bleeding out any further. Compared to the job that I had, June had the easiest job on that call. Usually, that would be the police job but just like the last few calls we got there before they did, by the time they got there we were already wheeling the victim out to the rig. I completely understood where the

Danny I petted Duke once more before straightening myself up and calling out to her. "Dawson wait" I called out. I couldn't let her leave at least not without talking to her first. I wasn't sure if she didn't hear me or was just ignoring me altogether seeing as she kept walking. "Malia, please wait" I called out but this time she stopped, if she didn't hear me before she definitely did now. This was the first time I'd called her by her first name since I found out that we'd be working together. just the sound of me saying her name made me feel warm inside, it felt right and fit perfectly and matched who she is. Hearing her name, and saying her name felt right, it felt better but I had to keep calling her by her last name, I had to keep things professional even if that meant calling her by her name outside of work. it was one way to ensure that our relationship was nothing but work-related, if I thought anything otherwise I’m not sure what exactly would happen but it would have me qu

Malia I sniffled and wiped the last tear from my eyes as June dragged me away from Danny and pulled me closer to the apparatus bay where I would soon find the officer from the building fire from not too long ago. I wasn't done talking to Danny, we didn't even have the chance to shake on it and seal the deal that would end whatever this was with him and protect Mariah. I had shed a tear or two unexpectedly yet again in a place that wasn't the right place or time. First, it was at the hospital after Tasha and I had dropped off the victim with a bunch of gunshot wounds when I was still at Firehouse 12 and now here at work in front of Danny of all people. I wasn’t expecting it but when he started talking about protecting and not wanting to hurt Mariah and not be the cause of our friendship if it ended, as how it should be, He put his sister before his own needs and that’s something a lot of people can’t or refuse to do. Listening to him made me think of my own little sibling Sebastian.W

Malia I was too stunned at the question to answer him, I felt like my mouth was dry and I couldn’t speak. It’s been so long since I’ve been asked out, yeah I've had a couple of one-night stands and a few flings including the one with Danny and I even gone back to an ex or two when I shouldn’t have but I’ve never been asked out or went on an actual date even before what happened with bash. My mind suddenly shifted towards the thought of Danny, but why? He was just a co-worker that I happened to have a one-night stand with before I actually knew who he was and met him who happens to be my best friend's brother. Besides we just agreed nothing else would happen between us and we’d keep things strictly professional and who knows going out on a date may be exactly what the doctor ordered to get my mind off Danny. Once I finally found my words I responded excitedly. “Yes, I’d like that” I was nervous and excited. His smile got wider and his eyes lit up like a Christmas tree. It was cute, h

Danny This entire day, this entire shift has been hectic from the moment we stepped foot in the firehouse. From the calls to the paperwork to my firefighters but despite all of that, it wasn’t any of those things that were keeping me up tonight. There was only one thing that was on my mind, one person on my mind and she was on the other side of my doors fast asleep just like everybody else. Malia Dawson, the one and only. She’s been on my mind all goddamn day and it’s been bugging the fuck out of me.First, thinking about what I was going to say to her and how I was going to apologize and explain my behavior to her on the night we had dinner. Then actually having that conversation with her earlier that we didn’t even get the chance to finish thanks to June which brings me to my next point of when she interrupted our conversation just so she could be nosy and feed her curiosity and have Dawson see what the police officer wanted with her. June and the other guys were all so goddamn inv

Danny P.O.V I leaned against the doorway of the apparatus bay and watched both her and the sunrise for a few seconds as I took everything in. I was tempted to take a picture just so I could stay in the moment a little longer but I didn’t, luckily, I had a good memory so I would be able to come back to this moment in my mind as many times as I wanted. I stood up and straightened myself out so I was no longer in the doorway, as I began getting more and more closer to her I started to see more and more of her face. I could see that she had been crying, she still was but it seemed that they were just a few droplets right about now. She didn’t look like she was in a talking mood and in all honesty, neither was I but I couldn’t just leave her there all alone crying. I sighed before grabbing the nearest chair from the squad table rolling it right beside her and sat down. From the way she looked at me, she hadn’t even noticed my presence until I sat down. Without saying a word I looked up a

Malia… I stood there frozen for a few seconds before finally snapping out of it. “I’m so sorry about her, she’s a little bit too much sometimes but to answer your question, No, I'm fine. I'm still capable of going to breakfast with you, it's actually perfect because I'm desperately in need of food and coffee ASAP.” I joked but continued “So how are we doing this? Are we talking your car and you’ll drop me off back here? Are we taking our own separate cars and meeting at the place so neither of us would have to come back here or….” he interrupted “Actually I was thinking we could walk there if you don’t mind, it's not that far and the weather is perfect, it's not too hot or cold and the breeze feels absolutely amazing. It doesn't even seem like it's almost winter it seems as if it's the beginning or mid-fall season. We could enjoy the weather and talk more on the way” he said looking unsure of what I would say about his idea. I honestly loved that idea, in a way it kind of sounded ro
Uncontrollable Flames Chapter 21
Danny *knock*knock*I heard as I woke up to the sound of someone knocking at my door. I heard the sound of my door opening “Wake up sunshine, rise and shine it’s time for you to go. We’re switching shifts, I hope you did all your paperwork instead of leaving it to me” I heard a familiar annoying ass voice from behind me. I turned to find it was David Hicks the lieutenant of Squad 66 from the next shift. He laughed for a minute before continuing “By the way the chief wants to see you before you go” he said in a mischievous tone as he turned around and walked away. That guy is the bane of my existence, he gets on my nerves and my patience with him is getting real fucking thin. Unlike him, I don’t leave behind paperwork or half-ass my job like he does. I do all the shit I need to do during shift just so I could take my ass home on time, he’s the asshole that does that shit which is why I’m always doing paperwork because of his ass. I only had to stay and do paperwork once, we were swamp
